About Dana
Dana Andrews is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through difficult feelings and find clearer ways forward. Dana also supports work on self-esteem, motivation, and intimacy-related issues.
Her approach blends client-centered care with practical techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. Sessions focus on real-life changes - small steps, new habits, and clearer communication.
Background and approach
She uses tools from dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when they fit a person’s goals. Dana has worked with concerns ranging from bipolar mood challenges to ADHD and trauma and abuse. She also helps people facing career questions, money worries, immigration-related stress, and cultural or multiculturally influenced concerns.
Her practice pays attention to identity and life stage issues that affect daily functioning. Based in New York, Dana holds the Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential (LCSW). She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different schedules and needs.
Sessions are delivered in English and international clients are not accepted. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions through the Start Therapy button. Dana uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s needs. It helps people feel heard and guides the conversation toward goals that matter to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for regulating intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness; it can help when strong feelings make daily life harder.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dana helps clients choose and try methods based on their goals, life demands, and personal preferences. Decisions about technique are collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy makes these approaches more flexible. Video calls let a therapist and client meet face to face when schedules or distance make in-person visits difficult. Phone sessions and live chat let people check in with less setup or when bandwidth is limited. Text-based messaging supports short updates, quick coaching prompts, or between-session check-ins. These options aim to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
